5. Oliver Jeffers Film. If you have young kids, you likely know the book, The Day the Crayons Quit. This is a short film about its author, Oliver Jeffers, and how he captures all of his ideas. While not a normal Gin and Topics video, Kate and I thought you’d enjoy it because what he speaks to can be applied to what every one of us does every day.

4. Holoportation. You guys! This is the coolest thing I have EVER seen! You remember in Star Wars when Princess Leia has a message for Obi-Wan Kenobi and it’s her hologram? IT IS HERE! In the near future, we will all be able to do this. Coolest. Thing. Ever. Think about what this means. Not only can you attend meetings without getting on a plane, now you can leave Thanksgiving before Uncle Rich gets drunk and starts talking politics. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!

3. Pup Quiz with Ben Affleck. Jimmy Fallon invites Ben Affleck on do his own style of trivia. When the person gets an answer correct, they win a puppy. And who doesn’t love puppies? (Though I am curious what happened to said puppies at the end of the show.) It’s pretty darn cute!

2. Misheard Song Lyrics. When we were kids, my mom sang, “meet me in Iowa” to Steve Winwood’s Higher Love. To this day, that’s how I sing that song. (Now you will, too. You’re welcome!) This is an 11 minute video—and you probably don’t need to watch the entire thing—but the first few minutes are hilarious!

1. Emma Watson Drop the Beat. Not only is Emma Watson A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E, but her humility is contagious and her accent is to die for. She has Lin-Manuel Miranda on her show to talk gender equality. He says the only way he will freestyle is if she beat boxes. It’s the best thing you will see all week. (Also, don’t read the comments.)
